If the Brewers win out they could finish ahead of the Pirates...

Chad Kuhl (4-3, 3.97) goes for Pittsburgh in the second to last game this season against the Brewers. Jimmy Nelson (8-14, 4.42) looks to make a case for a spot in next year's rotation. If the Pirates win out, 87-75 might be good enough for a Wild Card spot. The Brewers go another day without Ryan Braun. Oh, and happy fall!
